If they work for the government, they would not lie to us, would they?

One doesn't wish a Jewish friend a "happy" day of atonement, for instance, and Hanukkah was about the victory of a fundamentalist sect (Maccabean Revolt) over the secularism of the Hellenized Jews, who LIKED their gymnasiums and not having to slice that perfectly good cowl of skin off. The equivalent today would be the leader of al Qaeda decreeing a festival of lights in Syria to mark the fall of Assad and the reign of sharia law throughout the country.

I don't care about settlements, my issue is just aid. I was thinking a good way to curtail the aid was to charge a million dollars per new house over the Green Line, ten million per hotel. Kind of like Monopoly. Why not, since the money comes from Chinese Bank anyway.

Hannukah is called the "Festival of Lights". It is the celebration of a miracle: a synagogue had only enough oil to keep the eternal flame, the light that sits over the cabinet that holds the Torah, going for one day. A miracle happened and it burned for 8 days. Sure Bobby Zero, and they just "found" the Book of Deuteronomy under a couch cushion too. Miraculous.

Ms T claims people (including me) call her an anti-semite for disagreeing with foreign aid. The above comment shows once again why she is just a simple anti-semite.

The other day, to 'prove' you weren't a racist, you offered as evidence the fact, that you had to go to google to find a word to insult a Filipino. Now that you have it, you throw it around like a three year old that has just learned how to say shit.

How dumb do they grow them in Idaho? Are they all like you or are you like that big pumpkin, the mutant, the one they always show at the state fair?

Or, for the self-righteous that imagine themselves to be heros and cultural warriors:

Flip is a degrading racial slur for people of Filipino descent. It was used way back in the day to mean "Fucking Little Island People" The one`s who use it are just so stupid that they don`t know they`re own culture`s history. So please get it straight.

FLIP is degrading to Filipinos, but most are being stupid and calling themselves that.

In his letter to the President, Ritter expressed deep concern that the Affordable Care Act was a law that “caused such a ­divisive, derisive and toxic environment.” Ritter said that he wrote to the President with great trepidation because he feared “retribution.” He asserted, “The reality is that any citizen that disagrees with your administration is targeted and ridiculed.” Moreover, Ritter begged the President to, “Do the right thing not the political thing. Suggest a bill that Americans can support.”Ritter went on to accuse the President of making fun of "tea-baggers” and blamed White House Press Secretary Jay Carney for ridiculing Sarah Palin, noting that it was “beneath the dignity of the White House” to engage in this kind of political targeting.

Obama defended himself, writing, “I... appreciate your concern about the toxic political environment right now. I do have to challenge you, though, on the notion that any citizen that disagrees with me has been 'targeted and ridiculed' or that I have 'made fun' of tea-baggers.”

Louisiana Construction Jobs Are Surging, With The State Having The Third-Highest Increase In The Country

The Past 12 Months. The surge of growth in Louisiana fueled by several development projects has the state's construction employment on the rise. According to the Associated General Contractors of America, Louisiana saw an 8.3 percent rise in construction employment between October 2012 and October 2013.

Louisiana had the third-highest increase in the country, adding 10,700 construction jobs in the last 12 months.

Reuters -- Americans back a newly brokered nuclear deal with Iranby a 2-to-1 margin and are very wary of the United States resorting tomilitary action against Tehran even if the historic diplomatic effort fallsthrough, a Reuters/Ipsos poll showed on Tuesday.

According to the Reuters/Ipsos survey, 44 percent of Americanssupport the interim deal reached between Iran and six world powersin Geneva last weekend, and 22 percent oppose it.

While indicating little trust among Americans toward Iranian intentions,the survey also underscored a strong desire to avoid new U.S. militaryentanglements after long, costly wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Even if the Iran deal fails, 49 percent want the United States to thenincrease sanctions and 31 percent think it should launch further diplomacy.

Only 20 percent want U.S. military force to be used against Iran.

65 percent of those polled agreed that the United States "should notbecome involved in any military action in the Middle East unless Americais directly threatened." Only 21 percent disagreed with the statement.

Many of us have argued for the reintroduction of the DRAFT. The idea is impractical and politically impossible right now but there would be a number of benefits that could be derived from the change in policy. The two most important, IMO, would derive from the fact that most American families would be affected by it. There would be a shared sense of duty that could help rebuild a cohesiveness in the country that has been lost. Just as important it would help raise the recognition that war isn't just a video game played by others.

WiO,My exchange with Rufus Stolen Valor had the purposes of proving him a liar and a welfare recipient through VA. I have known about the welfare angle for a long time and decided this was the time to expose him. It took two days, but it was worth it.

Each and every month, Rufus Stolen Valor receives from Uncle Sam a check for doing two things: a) not being damaged in support of the United States and b) failing to make a living. You see, many years ago Congress authorized VA to become a covert dispenser of welfare. Indeed, the majority of folk using the VA system and getting small pensions have no more right to them than some gal in Philly with a batch of kids and high blood pressure from weighing 400 lbs. or a wino or drug abuser.

So, the next time the guy gives you grief about your views on the Obama system or anything else having to do with the economy, remind him that he is an old man who made bad life’s choices and is on the government dole rather than the street.

As for as the Marine Corps, I really do not care that some E-4 doubts it. For my service I receive compensation, not a pension. I get it and every single health care service possible because I was damaged in support of the US and am rewarded by a grateful nation. I cry when I leave my government subsidized home all the way to the bank in my VA funded vehicle. And I cried a river when each of my two children received almost $40,000 to go to school under Chapter 35. And I moan every time I use an AAFES facility wherever I happen to be and leave with a full tank of government subsidized gas.

But my friend, I earned it. 93% of my buddies earned only a headstone.

Truth be told, desert rat is of the same stripe.

The only thing that troubled me came at the end of the exchange. Earlier the guy admitted having STDs. Then, he asks me to say in Vietnamese, “come here little girl”. That was Freudian and nauseating.

Since this is my last outing in Little Berlin, feel free to contact me via my personal email.

ALLEN: "Israelis are well versed in history and Obama will not be the first emperor to get a face full of Jewish spit. Israel cannot win a war conventionally with the US. But we don't need to, because we can destroy your civilization."

Magnificent Ronald and the Founding Fathers of al Qaeda

“These gentlemen are the moral equivalents of America’s founding fathers.” — Ronald Reagan while introducing the Mujahideen leaders to media on the White house lawns (1985). During Reagan’s 8 years in power, the CIA secretly sent billions of dollars of military aid to the mujahedeen in Afghanistan in a US-supported jihad against the Soviet Union. We repeated the insanity with ISIS against Syria.
